What a small minded, sad little group of people you are to be happy that AMERICA did not get the Olympics. Sigh.
BTW, have any of you actually been to Chicago? It's one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Politics aside, you are dumping on some of the most wonderful people you'll ever meet, just to say something hateful about your President. I'm very proud to be from Chicago. Mayor Daily is 1000% for his citizens. Burris is an ass and not beloved in Chi at all. I did not hear what he said, but if he's blaming Bush... that's just plain ridiculous.
So, if all you know of Chicago is what you've read in some podunk little newspaper, remember EVERY city and town has it's element of corruption.
And, sweeties, quite frankly, if you haven't lived in Chicago... You haven't lived!
